On July 29, 2021, Paul Jay interviewed Mikey Weinstein on his program, a
Canadian-based podcast, The Analysis.News.
Here is the headline: “Full Interview – Powerful Christian Nationalists
in Military See Trump as Vehicle for Authoritarian Religious State – Mikey Weinstein.” The entire interview with adjoining transcript
is available here.
Here is how Weinstein was introduced:
Now joining us is Mikey
Weinstein. He’s the founder and president of the seven-time Nobel Peace
Prize-nominated Military Religious Freedom Foundation, the MRFF. Mikey was
named one of the 100 most influential people in U.S. Defense by Defense News,
which is a major publication read by just about everybody in the “defense
industry.” Mikey represents nearly 75,000 active and retired reserve service
members. He himself is an honor graduate
of the United States Air Force Academy and formerly worked in and for the West
Wing as a legal counsel in the Reagan White House.
The
introduction alone begs questions.
First, how does Jay know the MRFF was nominated
seven times for the Nobel Peace Prize?
Mikey told him? Who nominated the
MRFF for the Nobel Prize? Perhaps a
Freedom of Information Act request might answer this question.
Second, named one of the most influential
people in U.S. Defense by Defense News, was this a compliment? Here are some of the individuals selected Person of
the Year by Time Magazine: Adolph
Hitler, 1938; Joseph Stalin, 1939 and 1942; Nikita
Khrushchev, 1957; Ayatollah Khomeini, 1979; Deng Xiaoping, 1985; Vladimir
Putin, 2007; and Greta Thunberg, 2019. Mikey is in good company.
Third, Mikey represents 75,000 active and
retired reserve service members. Really? Of course, like the Nobel Peace Prize
nominations, we must take his word for it.
Moreover, he’ll claim lawyer-client confidentiality. Which brings us to the last achievement.
Finally, Mikey was an honor graduate of the United
States Air Force Academy. It is ironic
that he achieved success in an honor code-based institution he denigrates for
its alleged religious proselytizing while making dubious claims about the Nobel
Peace Prize and the number of clients he represents, let alone all those he
denigrates in the interview.
If
you are following my suspicion about Mikey’s intentions let alone his honesty,
please watch the interview. It begs many
more questions.
Mikey
represents the worst of what threatens America today—an anti-Judeo Christian
ideology grounded in atheistic Marxism.
Sadly, the last war America won was the Second World War. The following public domain picture from
Normandy, France, which is representative of all American cemeteries in Europe
and the Pacific stemming from WWII sacrifices, speaks volumes about the moral
grounding of those who gave their lives to protect American style liberty and
to liberate others under the oppression of ideological totalitarianism.
Who or what is Mikey’s moral inspiration? Satan’s lieutenants (obedient to the “ruler
of the world,” see John
12: 31-36) are working hard to
suppress our understanding of natural law and its inspiration for the Declaration
of Independence, codified in a self-governing Constitution and Bill of Rights.
If we do not recognize the danger and do what
we can to stem this movement (do you recall what happened to the Tsar Nicholas
II family at the hands of the Bolshevik movement? See my article here.), we will slide into the same
totalitarian fate of other nations during the Twentieth Century. For an excellent analysis and implied prophecy,
read Hannah Arendt’s The Origins of Totalitarianism. Conditions are ripe for a repeat of history.
Newsflash:
Trump was the antithesis of this movement. This should explain why he was so thoroughly demonized
by the left and their blatant socialist impulses.
